It isn't correct to say that only what is written covers the agreement, at least in Florida. Florida Consumer Protection Act would potentially provide some relief as the act is unconscionable in my mind. §501.204.

Imagine you would have to find an original buyer (not secondary market) to bring suit but I think it would succeed as the practice has the effect of retroactively seizing the property of the buyer.

There are probably other ways of taking action in court but that is one I think would have a chance of succeeding based on my very limited understanding.

The problem is unless the verbal agreement was tape recorded with proof then there's no way to verify what was said = "he said, she said"
